New Character Featurettes for Martin Scorsese’s ‘Silence’

Paramount Pictures has released three new character featurettes for Martin Scorsese’s religious drama Silence. Based on Shusaku Endo’s acclaimed novel of the same name, the film tells the story of two Christian missionaries (Andrew Garfield and Adam Driver) who face the ultimate test of faith when they travel to Japan in search of their missing mentor (Liam Neeson) – at a time when Christianity was outlawed and their presence forbidden.

Tadanobu Asano, Ciaran Hinds, Shinya Tsukamoto, Yosuke Kubozuka, Issey Ogata and Nana Komatsu also star. Silence is now playing in limited release. I’ve pulled some stills from the clips which can be found in the image gallery below.
